mySQL Database Tomcat 4 OJB (ObjectRelationalBridge)
My questions:
1) What is the best practice for the properties in an ActionForm bean? Because HTTP sends everything from forms as strings, do I make all properties Strings, then convert them in the Action (after validating of course)?
2) I am using a mySQL DateTime column in the database. What is the best practice for editing these values via Struts? Do I put a java.util.Date proeprty in the Action form? Or do I use a String (as in Q #1) and then do a conversion in the Action?
I am building an event manager... so the StartDate (actually StartDateTime) and EndDate (EndDateTime) are central to this application. I have not seen any examples of people editing DateTime or even Date values in a struts application.
Could someone with experiece in this area give me a brief explanation of the recommended workflow for editing dates?
Thanks, Aaron Longwell
